Businessman Korir Charged with Attempting to Defraud Sh 500,000: The Full Story

Businessman Joshua Kipkoskei Korir has appeared in court facing charges of fraudulently obtaining money.

He is accused of swindling 500,000 shillings from Patrick Ngigi Mbugua by deceitfully claiming he could facilitate the processing of a title deed, despite knowing that this was untrue.

The alleged offense took place on May 10, 2017, at the Equity Bank branch located on Muindi Mbingu Street in Nairobi County. During the court proceedings, Korir denied the charges before Senior Magistrate Kennedy Cheruiyot.

Following this, he was granted bail, set at 300,000 shillings with a surety of the same amount, or alternatively, a cash bail of 100,000 shillings.

The case is scheduled for a hearing on July 10, 2017.
